Lisbon, 26 November 2010 – Vodafone Portugal today launched the new ZTE V9 tablet exclusively in the Portuguese market, at a price of €249.90.

After being the first operator to commercially launch a tablet in Portugal, Vodafone is reinforcing its venture in this new segment by offering these devices at affordable prices.
